About this map

Minot Air Force Base dominates the southern landscape of this 2017 quadrangle, revealing a meticulously planned military installation characterized by its aviation-themed thoroughfares. The street grid itself serves as a map of Cold War and modern strategic history, with named routes such as Missile Ave, Bomber Blvd, and Cruise Missile Ln tracing the base's operational focus. A local Po facility is situated within this complex, supporting the personnel stationed on the plains of Ward County.

Beyond the base perimeter, the terrain transitions into the agricultural section lines typical of the North Dakota prairie. The landscape is etched by intermittent watercourses, including Little Deep Creek and Egg Creek, which meander through the northern reaches of the survey. The boundary between Renville and Ward Counties is clearly delineated along 72nd St NW, marking the division of local jurisdictions amidst the expanse of township and range divisions like t158n r83w.
